Grady-White Freedom Series | 40 Years of Dual Consoles

Grady-White Boats was founded in 1959 and builds offshore outboard boats at its manufacturing plant in Greenville, NC. The company has been under continuous private ownership by Eddie Smith and the Smith family since 1968. Grady-White produces the very best family-and-fishing boats available and this is exceptionally evident in their Freedom line.

In 1979, Grady-White developed the very first saltwater dual console, the Tarpon 190. Today, nearly 40 years later, Grady-White’s Freedom line includes an amazing ten models ranging from 19 to 37 feet.

This progression provides unmatched variety as well as an astonishing record of longevity and continuous improvement of the design style. Each and every Grady-White is loaded with innovations, smart features, function, and “just-right” luxury, inspired by generations of customers and thousands of hours of trial and fine-tuning.

During these 40 years, Grady-White listened to their customers to gain a depth of knowledge and experience that truly sets them apart from others, greatly enriches their designs, and gives you much greater long-term value for every dollar you invest. You get what you pay for, and in the case of a Grady-White dual console, you get even more. A few examples of their latest innovations include fold away seating for walking about, cockpit steps for easy boarding, toe rails for safety, composite built string systems and transoms, extension rods on seacock handles, and above all incredible performance with the design of their SeaV2 hull.

While others focused on the latest trends, Grady-White steadfastly built better-and-better big water dual consoles.
